I just stepped off the plane onto Japanese soil. An exhilarating feeling went through me. I went to the luggage pick-up. Since I was on my own, I grabbed my stuff and went and got a taxi. I told the driver the address, and soon arrived at my cousin's house. I checked the address, then paid the driver. I walked up to the house then pushed the door bell. I look at the name plate it read 'Kikumaru'. I heard some smashing sounds for inside, and I soon found myself looking at a bright red-headed boy.

"Are you Sumi-kun?" - the boy asked.
'Why do people always mistake me for a boy, I mean come on I have long hair for crying out loud! Oh forget it let then think what the want!'
"Hn" - I said
"Hoi, Hoi! Okaa-san! Sumi-kun is here!" - the boy yelled causing me cover my sensitive ears. I growled in annoyance
"Let him in then!" - the woman yelled from within the house.
"Right, come on in Sumi-kun!" - he yelled again much to my annoyance.

He stepped aside for me to go threw. Just stepping over the threshold I knew I wouldn't like this place. I took my shoes off as it is a custom here. He went to a cupboard and handed me some slippers(1). I took them and put them on my feet. He then led me to the living room and had me sit down at the table. A woman then came in with a tray of tea and sat down next to the boy seated across from me.

"Were so happy that you came to stay with us." - the woman said
"I wont be staying long I have to get to my house before the landlord leaves so I can get my keys off of him." - I said.
"What!? I thought that you were going to stay with us?" - she asked.
"Well it seems that your plans have been disrupted by me having to live here so I took my inheritance and decided to get my self a house. The inheritance should last me out until the end of my school years and the money from my tournaments will as well help. So you won't have to worry about it." - I said.
"Well what about going to school? How close are you?" - she asked
"I live right in front to the school gates." - I said plainly while raising an eyebrow.
I look at my watch and stood up. I then bowed .
"It is time that I left, thank you for your hospitality but at this time I must leave. May I ask your names?" - I asked.
"I'm Kikumaru, Eiji and this is my mother." - Eiji said
'So he is Kikumaru, Eiji from Seigaku tennis regulars, huh?'
"You can just call me Mrs. Kikumaru dear!" - Mrs. Kikumaru said
"Right well I best be going if I want to catch the landlord before he leaves." -I said
"Well we hope that you come visit us soon." - Mrs. Kikumaru said
"Yes well I'll try my best." - I said taking my slippers off and putting my shoes back on.
'Yah right! Suckers'

Once I left the house and went to my house which was like ten blocks away. I pulled out my I-pod and turned it to one of my favorite songs. It wasn't long before I found my self in front of my house. I walked up to the sleeping landlord.

"Excuse me but would you happen to be the landlord?" - I asked approaching the man.
"Yes and might you be Sumi-san?" - he asked.
"Yes, and you're the first person to know me as a female I congratulate you." - I said.
"Well isn't it obvious?" - He asked.
"Apparently not, am I correct in saying that you are Nanjiro Echizen the Tennis Samurai that retired?" - I asked intrigued.
"As a matter of fact I am, and if am I not mistaken in saying that you are Yuki Tora or more commonly known as Snow Leopard?" - Nanjiro asked.
"You would be correct." - I said.
My watch went off telling me that I had to start my nightly training schedule.
"Could I get my keys from you Samurai-sama(2)?" - I asked.
"Of course you can, and if you need anything just call, I'll do anything for a fellow player." - Nanjiro said handing me the keys to my house.
"Arigato(3) Nanjiro-san." - I said bowing low before the inspiration I have always fallowed.

He soon left and I went into my house. I dropped my stuff off and changed into a running out fit and went for my 2 mile run. I listened to my I-pod once more and soon finished my run. As I was walking to my house I saw a boy with a green bandanna running. 'Koaru, Kaido from Seigaku' I nodded to him as he passed. I saw his eyes widen and then he nodded. He then went on his way. I soon found my self in front of my house so I went in, took a shower and got ready for bed. Once done with that I went into the kitchen and mad my self so onigiri.

Once I finished I went to bed and set my alarm for 4 in the morning. I had to get up early for my morning workout schedule. I laid awake staring at the ceiling hopefully this year in Seigaku will be interesting. With that I felt my self fall asleep awaiting the new day that would bring many questions.

It is Japanese tradition to take off your shoes and wear slippers. I don't know why though!
